利用大豆乳清废水生产SCP的研究

以大豆乳清废水为原料,通过对产朊假丝酵母的培养,使大豆乳清废水中的营养成分被酵母菌吸收利用,从而使菌体生长繁殖产生单细胞蛋白。单细胞蛋白(SCP)产量为8.7 mg/mL,蛋白含量为51.3%;且废水COD去除率达到73.4%,达到了国家乳清废水的标准,从而实现了废水资源化利用的目的。     

小球藻中类胡萝卜素类化合物的高效液相色谱分离条件的优化

采用超声破碎法和甲醇:二氯乙烷=2:1(v/v)溶剂来萃取小球藻中类胡萝卜素类化合物.分别采用了3种不同的色谱分离方法,最后确定小球藻中类胡萝卜素类化合物的最优色谱分离条件为甲醇(A):乙氰(B)=90:10(v/v),柱温为室温,流速1ml/min.用ZOBAX SB-C18色谱柱和ZOBAX Eclipse plus C18色谱柱进行分离试验时发现,ZOBAX Eclipse plus C18色谱柱的分离效果良好.最后确定小球藻中叶黄素含量为2.312mg/g.     

Human umbilical cord-derived MSC culture: the replacement of animal sera with human cord blood plasma

Human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) hold great potential for their therapeutic use in various clinical diseases. Many publications have reported on human blood-derived alternatives to animal serum for culturing mesenchymal stem cells, such as human serum, allogenic umbilical cord blood serum, and human platelet derivatives. However, it is not clear whether human umbilical cord blood plasma (UCBP), as the surplusage of umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cell extraction, could be used. In this study, in order to make the best of umbilical cord blood, the human UCBP was dialyzed to replace fetal bovine serum (FBS) in the culture medium. hUC-MSCs were cultured in the new medium. Cell growth rate, specific biomarkers, and differentiation properties were detected to characterize the cell proliferation and MSC-specific properties. The hUC-MSCs cultured in such derived medium were verified with proliferation rate, cluster differentiation markers, cell cycle, as well as differentiation capabilities. Such dialyzed human UCBP is fully comparable with, if not superior to, FBS in deriving and culturing hUC-MSCs.     

Bone marrow-derived stem cells contribute skin regeneration in skin and soft tissue expansion

Skin and soft tissue expansion stimulates the proliferation of skin epidermal basal cells and increase the dermal collagen deposition and angiogenesis. To explore the contribution of bone marrow‐derived stem cells (BMSCs) to the generation of “new” skin during the expansion, we used a chimeric mouse model in which the donor C57BL mice were engrafted with the bone marrow of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) transgenic mice. BMSCs were collected from the tibia and femur of EGFP⁺ transgenic mice, and then injected into normal C57BL mice via the tail vein (chimeric mice). Skin was obtained at different times (days 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35). Skin stromal‐derived factor‐1 (SDF‐1) expression was evaluated. The number, distribution, and phenotype changes of EGFP⁺ cells in the skin were also evaluated by means of fluorescent microscopy. EGFP⁺ cells were present stably in the normal skin. The number of EGFP⁺ cells of the Group A mice changed with the tension, and reached the peak on day 21(17.1 ± 6.7%), as compared with either Group B (5.5 ± 1.0%) or Group C (5.1 ± 0.9%). The SDF‐1 expression in the expanded skin was significant increased (≈11‐fold, P < 0.01) compared to non‐expanded skin on day 21. Immunofluorescence showed EGFP⁺ cells were converted into vascular endothelial cells, epidermal cells, and spindle‐shaped dermal fibroblasts. Strain can promote the expression of SDF‐1 and facilitate the differentiation and proliferation of BMSCs in the expanded skin. J. Cell. Physiol. 226: 2834–2840, 2011. © 2011 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.     

基于可变模糊评价模型的东山湾生态系统健康评价

根据东山湾海域环境污染现状和生态系统的特点,从水质环境、沉积物环境、生物残毒以及海洋生物方面构建了东山湾生态系统健康评价指标体系,提出了基于可变模糊评价模型的海湾生态系统健康评价方法,并利用该方法对东山湾生态系统健康状况进行了评价。结果表明:东山湾春季生态系统健康指数为2.36,秋季为2.44,均处于"良与中之间,偏良"水平,春季略优于秋季。影响东山湾生态系统健康状况的主要负面指标因子为鱼卵及仔鱼密度(春秋季健康指数均值为4.95)、营养水平(秋季健康指数为4.47)和底栖生物生物量(春季健康指数为3.59)。实例研究表明该方法通过准则参数α和距离参数p的不同组合变化,以线性与非线性相结合,能够较客观系统、标准量化地评价海湾生态系统健康状况的优劣,。
